Clients at every stage

Who We Serve

We work with clients across a range of industries, business stages, and markets.

 

Small & Mid-Size Enterprises

We help small and mid-size companies build IP protection that matches their risk, goals, and resources, prioritizing the patents, trademarks, and agreements that protect real business value. We translate complex IP issues into practical business decisions, helping leadership teams understand where protection matters most and why.

 

Venture-Backed & Growth-Stage Startups

We help founders develop practical IP strategies that align with fundraising, product development, and growth. Whether preparing for a financing, strategic partnership, or acquisition, we help ensure the company’s intellectual property is protected, scalable, and ready to support the next stage of the business.

 

Multinational & Global Companies

We represent both U.S. companies expanding internationally and foreign companies seeking protection in the United States. By coordinating with a trusted network of foreign associates, we help clients manage patents, trademarks, licensing, and portfolio strategy across jurisdictions through a single point of contact.

 

Government Contractors & Federal Technology Vendors

We help government contractors and federal technology vendors develop IP strategies that support both government programs and commercial growth. From patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets to technical data rights, software rights, and federally funded R&D, we help clients protect valuable technology while pursuing partnerships, licensing opportunities, and expansion into private markets.

 

Private Investors & Family Offices

We help private investors and family offices evaluate intellectual property as part of a broader investment strategy. From patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets to licensing and commercialization considerations, we help identify risks and opportunities that may impact value before and after an investment.
